STUDYING AT
HOLMESGLEN
Holmesglen is one of the largest providers of vocational and higher
education in Victoria. Since 1982, Holmesglen has grown from a
delivery of 90 programs to 7,000 students, to a unique multi-sectoral
provider offering over 600 programs to more than 45,000 students.
Holmesglen delivers courses internationally and nationally across four
major campuses: Chadstone, City, Moorabbin and Waverley and with
a number of partner providers.
Immersive Simulated Learning Environments
Courses offered at Holmesglen are especially suited to those interested
in receiving a practical education with hands on skills and experience.
We can help you enter (or re-enter) the workforce, move up or change
professions. You will also be exposed to industry professionals through
teachers, contacts and industry placement.
Experience our world class simulated work environments and
get a taste for what’s in store for you when you enter the working
world. These Simulated Learning Environments, in combination
with practical placements, ensure that when you graduate you will
have the practical skills, knowledge and confidence needed to step
straight into an exciting career.
At Holmesglen, we invest to ensure that students have access to the
best possible education and training facilities possible.
Teaching Methods
When you study at Holmesglen, your lessons and assessments may
consist of various teaching methods. These teaching methods include
supervised classroom learning, online learning, lectures, tutorials,
individual feedback sessions, supervised practical components, work
experience/practical placement, language support and field trips.
Some of your subjects will be assessed using a Problem-Based
Learning (PBL) approach. The PBL approach will help you to develop
effective problem solving skills, analytical and critical thinking skills
and improved collaboration skills while providing you with real world
scenarios encountered in your future workplace.
Tutorials enable students to explore particular topics and concepts in
detail. Student teachers may occasionally be teaching in class under
the supervision of a qualified teacher. Some evening and weekend
study may be required.
The combination of learning methods at Holmesglen is designed with
your future in mind and your versatile skills and work ready experience
will make you a valuable asset to your future employers.
Assessment Methods
Your progress and development is assessed with a combination
of written assignments, tests and practical application projects.
In some courses, assessment is based on competency (i.e. the ability
to perform specific skills) and is done through any combination of
observation, discussion, written assignments, tests, examinations and
practical application/work related projects. As such, active contribution
and participation in class is highly recommended.
Some courses you select may require lessons to be conducted in
an immersive Simulated Learning Environment. These specialised
classrooms encourage student collaboration, proper workplace
behaviour and communication, and, most importantly, the learning
of the practical skills you will need for your chosen career.
Course Credit
If you have relevant qualifications, skills or experience, you may
be eligible for credit. In Australia, we call this Credit Transfer (CT)
or Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).
Credit Transfer may be granted on the basis of previous study of
the same or similar modules/units of competency at Holmesglen or
at other TAFE institutions. Recognition of Prior Learning is used to
evaluate qualifications gained from other formal studies or training.
Information on how to apply for this type of credit will be provided
during the orientation program. If you believe you will be making
an application for course credit on arrival at Holmesglen, please
bring with you original copies of your academic transcripts and a
verifiable, detailed outline of each subject that you undertook as
part of the course.
If you think you are eligible for this type of credit or you wish to
apply for exemptions, you should lodge your application at the
International Centre before the end of the orientation week at the
latest. Applications received after that time will not be considered.
I decided to take up further studies
at Holmesglen’s Moorabbin Campus
to follow my passion for cooking.
I must admit working as well as
studying was tiring especially when
I had to stand on my feet for 12-16
hours on average each day. But it
was the fun of studying hospitality
at Holmesglen that kept me going
as well as the opportunity to
explore different places, cultures
and experiences in Melbourne.
Eventually, I reached the position
of Chef de Partie at a prestigious
5 star hotel in Melbourne.
Chef Tinee – Thailand
Graduate of Diploma of Hospitality (Culinary)
Award-winning Chef and owner of Tinee Eatery Workshop
(Bangkok, Thailand)
RPL/CT will be granted subject to meeting the requirements of
Standard 9 of the National Code – completion within the expected
duration of study. Refer to www.aei.gov.au/ESOS. Until you have
received notification that you have been granted RPL or CT, you
must attend all classes.
There is no refund of fees for any credit granted. If you are granted
RPL or CT, you will be allowed to enrol in additional subjects, subject
to places being available. In this way, you may be able to complete
your course in a shorter amount of time.
You are required to attend test and examinations as scheduled
by Holmesglen.

SUPPORTING YOU
When I first came to Holmesglen,
I was a very shy person. All
this changed when I had the
opportunity to participate
in the many social activities
at Holmesglen. I have learnt
so much about the different
cultures and places from the
other students I’ve met.
I’ve become more confident
about speaking to others in
English and now volunteer
at Holmesglen to share my
experience as a student with
others and am always happy
to welcome new students.

the needs of international students who wish to study while under the
age of 18 years.

• academic monitoring and progress reports
• contact with the student and homestay family on a regular basis
• liaison with the student’s teachers
• activities with other people providing welfare support and those
in their care
• regular contact with student’s family
All students who enter into Holmesglen’s welfare support program are
required to stay in homestay accommodation. The program enables
international students to settle into their new Australian lifestyle with
the support of a homestay family, their welfare carer and Holmesglen
staff. It is an opportunity for the students to learn about Australian
culture in a safe and understanding environment, while focussing
on their academic program.
The fee attached to the welfare support program is:
$600 per 13-week term. Payment must be made in full prior to the
student’s arrival.
Student Turns 18 within Two Months
of Commencement of Studies
When a student turns 18 years of age within two months of commencing
their course at Holmesglen, Holmesglen will appoint a Holmesglen
Welfare Officer as welfare carer. No payment is required for this service.
Parents Can Nominate a Suitable
Relative to Provide Welfare Arrangements
Holmesglen understands that families may have relatives living
in Melbourne who wish to provide welfare support for their son/
daughter. The Department of Immigration and Border Protection
defines a ‘suitable relative’ as a person who is a grandparent,
brother, sister, aunt, uncle, niece or nephew, or step-grandparent,
stepbrother or step-sister, step-aunt, step-uncle, step-niece or
step-nephew, nominated by the parents, over the age of 21,

Further information about nominating a suitable relative and the
requirements is available on the Department of Immigration and
Border Protection’s website www.immi.gov.au.
Applications for this arrangement need to be made directly to DIBP.
Transition Arrangements between Providers
Where an overseas student has been granted a visa for multiple
courses, each registered provider must nominate the period for
which they are responsible for approving the care arrangements.
Where appropriate care arrangements have not been made for
overseas students under 18 years of age outside this nominated
period, the overseas student may have their student visa cancelled
and may be required to leave Australia.
Students under the age of 18 who study at Holmesglen and who
will complete their course by 31 December and are transferring
to another provider to commence study by 15 March the following
year require welfare arrangements. Holmesglen will provide welfare
arrangements for this period at a cost of $600.
Students are still required to live in homestay accommodation
until the age of 18.
Parents can Nominate A Company
to Provide Welfare Arrangements
Families may wish to consider direct contact with a welfare support
company. Please contact the International Centre to obtain an up-todate listing of companies that Holmesglen recognises. Students are
still required to live in homestay accommodation until the age of 18.
Parents can apply for a Student Guardian Visa
The guardian visa will allow an overseas student’s parent or relative
to remain in Australia for the entire period that they are required to
be here to provide for the student’s welfare.
The student guardian will be expected to live with the student while
in Australia, and must not leave without the student unless appropriate
alternative arrangements are first put in place. All initial student
guardian visa applications must be made outside Australia.
Further information about the student guardian visa and its
requirements is available on the Department of Immigration

to all Holmesglen students and graduates.

As his studies came to an end, Aidan found his career opportunities were
only just beginning. Like many before him, Aidan ended up in his poststudy job with the help of Holmesglen’s Graduate Employment Service.
He had a sit-down meeting with service coordinator Hamish, who listened
to exactly what Aidan wanted out of a future career and helped make his
dream possible. He also provided invaluable assistance with tailoring
Aidan’s resume to better attract potential employers, and then suggested
the Drake International job to the young marketer. After a successful
interview, Aidan was employed in the field of his choice, citing the job as
an excellent step-up in his career and a fun environment to be in.

Joji Imabayashi – Japan
Graduate of Diploma of Conservation and Land Management
My name is Joji and I recently graduated from Holmesglen’s Diploma of
Conservation and Land Management in 2013. I joined the course as I had
specialised in water management and sustainable agriculture when I was
in Japan. I wanted to learn more about water efficient land management,
sustainability methods and other environmental problems.
During the course, I got the valuable opportunity to train on site with Parks
Victoria and learned practical expertise necessary in the environmental
science field. I’m hoping to take these skills to help prevent and overcome
desertification in agricultural areas.

Holmesglen was the perfect choice for me as I always preferred working with
my hands. The lessons were practical based and taught me a great deal about
the furniture industry. I especially enjoyed using machinery and tools that were
identical to those used by industry professionals.
Now, I’m running my own successful cabinet making business that specialises in
custom made furniture and with an ever-growing list of clients. I would recommend
anyone to study at Holmesglen as it was an experience I will never forget.

2.1A study period at Holmesglen consists of no more than 24 weeks within a semester or a trimester
The ESOS Act now limits the collection of pre-paid tuition fees. Tuition fees for all courses including ELICOS
are payable per study period. Fees payable are documented in the student’s written Letter of Offer
and Fee Schedule. Holmesglen collects no more than 50% of the total course cost prior to the student
commencing the course except for courses that fall within one study period of 24 weeks or less.
2.2Tuition fees paid offshore are payable to Holmesglen Institute of TAFE by Electronic Funds Transfer,
MasterCard, Visa or international bank draft (in Australian dollars, drawn on an Australian bank in
Australia). Holmesglen’s bank account details are:
Account Name: Holmesglen Institute of TAFE
Bank Name: Commonwealth Bank of Australia – Ashburton Branch Bank Address:
205 High Street, Ashburton, Victoria, Australia SWIFT CODE: CTBAAU2S
Branch Number (BSB): 063103
Account Number: 00901243
Once payment has been lodged, students must immediately forward the remitter’s name together
with a copy of the remittance advice/TT transmission notice in order for us to track the payment in
our account.
2.3Tuition fees paid onshore can be paid in cash, by bank cheque, MasterCard or Visa, through Australia
Post or over the internet.
2.4 After a student commences at Holmesglen, fees for subsequent study periods are due two weeks
prior to the commencement of the study period. Invoices to students will indicate a due date that is
compliant with current ESOS requirements. Unpaid fees will result in the cancellation of a student’s
enrolment at the end of any appeals process. International students are required to demonstrate to the
Australian Government sufficient funds to cover their studies in Australia. As such, financial hardship is
not considered grounds for appeal. A fee of $300 will be levied on students who fail to make payment
by the required date and where an enrolment has to be reinstated after cancellation.
2.5Additional fees are payable - for additional courses, graduation ceremonies, excursions, resitting tests
and examinations and textbooks.
2.6When students have to repeat a subject or subjects in the same study period in which they have paid a
full fee, no additional fee is payable. However when they repeat a subject or subjects in a study period
in which they have not paid a full fee, a pro-rata tuition fee is payable.
2.7Where a student has a package offer with a partner institution, Holmesglen reserves the right to
impose an upfront fee which will not be refundable.
2.8Students who enrol in additional courses will be required to pay the full-time course fee applicable to
that course.
2.9 Holmesglen reviews its tuition fees and other charges annually. You will be required to pay the current
fee that applies from the beginning of the next study period. If you defer your course, you will be
required to pay the fees applicable to your new commencement date. If the student changes course
the new course tuition fee will apply. Students enrolled in programs with Holmesglen’s partners will be
required to pay the tuition and other fees set by the partner.
Holmesglen makes every attempt to provide an indication of the partner institution’s fees at the time of
production of this brochure. However, students should refer to the partner institutions’ websites for full
information. Holmesglen takes no responsibility for fee increases at partner institutions.
2.10There is no reduction in fees for subject exemptions for Certificate and Diploma programs. For degree
programs, fees are charged per subject.
2.11The Institute does not accept liability for any fees paid to an agent or third party in relation to an
application for enrolment.
2.12Where the Goods and Services Tax (GST) applies to programs and services in this prospectus, the tax
is included in the advertised fee.
